Maglev short for magnetic levitation trains can trace their roots to technology pioneered at brookhaven national laboratory.
Magnetic laminated train.
James powell and gordon danby of brookhaven received the first patent for a magnetically levitated train design in the late 1960s.
This magnetic field has its own north and south poles which push the train along the track.
It was first conceived by the american inventor colonel ret roy d.

Magnetrain is the name for a maglev train system using a permanent magnet levitation system.
In this video we show a few minutes of the magnet train demos we tried.
We tried various tracks batteries and magnets and even a train jump.
One set to repel and push the train up off the track and another set to move the elevated train ahead taking advantage of the lack of friction.
When you put the train inside the coils it causes an electrical current to flow through the copper wire which creates a magnetic field in the section of wire coils right around the train car.
Magnetic levitation maglev is a relatively new transportation technology in which non contacting vehicles travel safely at speeds of 250 to 300 miles per hour or higher while suspended guided and propelled above a guideway by magnetic fields.

The guideway is the physical structure along which maglev vehicles are levitated.
Maglev derived from magnetic levitation is a system of train transportation that uses two sets of magnets.
At that time the idea of high speed rail transport using magnetic levitation was in the air.
